> In {{adjustColumnWidths()}}, we set the member variable {{lineFormat}}, which is used by {{ProcessPath()}} to print directory entries. Owners and groups are formatted using the formatting conversion {{%-Xs}}, where X is the max length of the owner or group. However, when trying this with an S3 URL, I found that the owner and group were empty (""). This caused X to be 0, which means that the formatting conversion is set to {{%-0s}}. This caused a {{MissingFormatWidthException}} to be thrown when the formatting string was used in {{ProcessPath()}}. 
> Formatting conversions are described here:

> The specific exception thrown (a subtype of {{IllegalFormatException}}) is described here:
